"Irresistible... a Golden Age homage, an elegantly constructed
mystery that on every page reinforces the message that everyone
counts." -New York Times Book Review Recommended by New York Times

Crash * and many more! From the award-winning author of The Day I
Died and The Lucky One, a captivating suspense novel about nurses
during World War II who come to Agatha Christie's holiday estate to
care for evacuated children, but when a body is discovered nearby,
the idyllic setting becomes host to a deadly mystery. Bridey Kelly
has come to Greenway House-the beloved holiday home of Agatha
Christie-in disgrace. A terrible mistake at St. Prisca's Hospital
in London has led to her dismissal as a nurse trainee, and her only
chance for redemption is a position in the countryside caring for
children evacuated to safety from the Blitz. Greenway is a
beautiful home full of riddles: wondrous curios not to be touched,
restrictions on rooms not to be entered, and a generous library,
filled with books about murder. The biggest mystery might be the
other nurse, Gigi, who is like no one Bridey has ever met. Chasing
ten young children through the winding paths of the estate grounds
might have soothed Bridey's anxieties and grief-if Greenway were
not situated so near the English Channel and the rising aggressions
of the war. When a body washes ashore near the estate, Bridey is
horrified to realize this is not a victim of war, but of a brutal
killing. As the local villagers look among themselves, Bridey and
Gigi discover they each harbor dangerous secrets about what has led
them to Greenway. With a mystery writer's home as their unsettling
backdrop, the young women must unravel the truth before their safe
haven becomes a place of death . . .
